Ugh, you can say that again. The entire game there was just no energy to the team at all. And for the life of me I couldn't figure out why Diop wasn't getting any play time. This is what we signed him for, right? When our interior defense needs anchored and Damp is out. I know Avery wanted to play small ball because Phoenix was putting a small, quick team on the court, but Diop can easily keep up with any of the big men the Suns have and he's an excellent shot blocker. I just didn't get using KVH at center so much with Diop rotting on the bench.
Anyway, at about the 8:00 mark in the fourth quarter I was so disgusted at the lack of effort that I turned the TV off and went to bed sure that we'd started the year out with a loss. How surprised was I to wake up and look at the box score this morning. Shame on me for giving up on my team I guess, eh. But man I hope they show more energy against Utah tonight.
